It seems getting FaceTime to work on the current iPad is all the rage these days, but up until now it’s not been the easiest thing to do. But now thanks to iFacePad, the whole process is down to just a few downloads and a couple of mouse-clicks. You’ll be chatting in no-time!
A few days ago, we showed you how to manually enable FaceTime on the iPad, and today we’re going to show you how to use an app to automate the whole process. Props to Intell for this nifty little app.
NOTE: Mac only
1. Download iFacePad
2. Download iOS 4.2.1 for iPad
3. Download PhoneDisk for Mac and PC here.
4. Jailbreak your iPad ( in case you didn’t already )
4. Load Cydia and install OpenSSH and AFC2
5. Run PhoneDisk make sure to enable root and connect to root
6. Run iFacePad.app
7. Reboot iPad
8. Enjoy
NOTE: If FaceTime doesn’t work after reboot, make sure permissions are set correct on mobilePhone.app and in /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/IMcore.framework/IMAgent.app is set 755
NOTE: remember that the iPad doesn’t have a camera, so the other person can’t see you.
